Assigning Seniority Bonuses

During the hire process, you can assign a seniority equivalent to define the step that should be assigned to the employee entering the organization. For employees who are in a grade with no step, the Hiring Seniority Bonus FPS component (HIRE_BONUS) enables you to assign seniority bonuses to the employee.

There are various seniority equivalents, depending on the employee's competencies, work experience, and career seniority that are acquired in other organizations or during military service. At hiring validation, French Public Sector takes these equivalents into account and determines the employee's step.

This section discusses how to create seniority bonuses.

You can select only employees who have an existing record, but whose hiring is not yet validated.

The seniority durations (in years/months/days) entered in the Hiring Seniority Bonus FPS component are used to calculate the seniority that employees would have at the time they are hired. These durations are considered to be the theorical seniority of an employee in the salary grade table to which he is attached.

A theorical career seniority should also be defined for each step using the Salary Grade Steps component (FPMSALSTEP_PNL).

An employee's step is determined by comparing the theoretical seniority of the employee when he is hired to the theoretical career seniority of the step. The step assigned to the employee is the one for which the theoretical seniority of the employee is higher than the theoretical career seniority of the step, and smaller than the theoretical career seniority of the next step.

If a seniority bonus equivalent to the national service is the only seniority bonus assigned to the employee, the bonus for entering the salary grade table, defined in the Salary Grade Table component (FPMSALMATRX_PNL), is added to the "national service" seniority to make the theoretical seniority of the employee.

Use the Sen Bonus - Overall Data (seniority bonus - overall data) page (FPABONUS_PNL1H) to enter the seniority bonus code.
